Jae-joong vs. Robert Pattinson. Say what???

Recently, an Italian magazine Ragazza Moderna dedicated a page to compare JYJ’s Jae-joong and Twilight’s Robert Pattinson under the segment “East vs. West Idols feature story.” Surprised as I am to find Jae-joong’s picture in an Italian magazine, I am more blown away by how much Jae-joong looks so much hotter than Robert Pattinson. An excerpt reads:

We are convinced that the big East has nothing to be envious about regarding the West. Rob and his friends should be worried? Make your comparison and tell us on FB.

(The word ‘Bellissmi’ means very beautiful or very handsome.)

To all the K-pop Twilight fans, who would you choose? (As a side note, Robert Pattinson has never been my ‘Edward Cullen.’ I still cannot get over the fact that he was chosen to be Edward.)

But Robert Pattinson versus Jaejoong? How did they even come up with this pairing? Because JYJ stopped by Europe for a short concert? And because Twilight is going to come out soon? Whatever the reason, the response across the blogosphere has been immense, and rightly so. Twilight fans + Jaejoong fans = several billion on this earth already, right? This not only proves how he deserved to win SB’s Idol Type World Cup, it shows how much people around the world finds him attractive.

And obviously my choice is Jae-joong, as if I needed to clarify. That’s my choice in this weird face-off.

Now I can’t stop thinking about other awesome (and possibly awful) pairings in the East vs. West faceoff. What about Justin Bieber versus G-Dragon? Or Siwon versus Chace Crawford?!

Pattinson does exactly nothing for me and I’ve never seen twilight, so it’s really not even a question for me. Jaejoong hands down…especially with the haircut he has now.

I haaaaaate Twilight. Always have, since my friends made me read the damn book in 7th grade (five years ago). Hated it then and still hate it now, more than ever. I used to hate Robert Pattinson by association, but then I saw how much he hated Twilight as well. He never misses a chance to bash it. So I love him for that. All the same, I personally don’t find him very attractive, especially when he has fake-abs or facial hair. Other people think he’s very good-looking, and he is, but he just doesn’t appeal to me. Jaejoong’s beautiful but I find him very effeminate (not always, though). They’re both attractive but of the two, I’d pick Jaejoong.

About it being in an Italian magazine – maybe Kpop’s popular in Italy? Or maybe DBSK is?

kekek i just got a good laughter after reading what Pattinson thinks about the twilight series hahaaha! wow i respect the guy a bit now! XD twilight is a badly written book about a pedo stalker vampire and a psychotic suicidal girl!

o.O Um. This is a very strange comparison. Although I’m not a huge DBSK/JYJ Fan, I am going with Jaejoong. Why? Because I’ve seen Robert Pattinson without his shirt on, and it was not a pretty sight. (Don’t watch New Moon if you don’t want to get traumatized :P)

can’t wait for Siwon v. Chace!!! I mean, Siwon was gonna win that hands down, but ever since [GOSSIP GIRL SEASON 5 SPOILER ALERT] Chace had to kiss Liz Hurley [/END SPOILER ALERT] it’s kind of become a no-contest for me…

I’ve never watched Gossip Girl, so what is this “Siwon v. Chace” contest about? Is Siwon guest-starring in Gossip Girl? I never thought Siwon was that good of an actor, but he has promise. Maybe he’ll wow me?

Jae-joong or Robert Pattinson? – I have only seen the first Twiligh movie (not wanting to waste my money on others) and I haven´t read the books either (cause the movie was so bad) but I initially though the casting was little bit odd. Robert Pattinson is handsome in his own way I guess, I just don´t see any “eternal” charisma. But I think he is actually quite cool British boy, he definitely doesn´t take himself too seriously. Jae-joong seems sometimes really cool and hot and sometimes I find him little bit weird looking. I have probably never seen him without make-up either. I´m not really a fan of his but I would vote for him because of Protect the Boss.
Justin Bieber versus G-Dragon? – Ok, that would be easy for me because I´m not into underage boys :-))
Siwon versus Chace Crawford? – More difficult but Chace Crawford would be a winner. I thinks he is a better actor and he also seems more sincere to me. Siwon always gave me a feeling of “good daddy´s boy” – almost perfect but somehow “scripted” (if that makes sense … probably not :-))

Jae, duh. But I do like RPatz. His burning hatred of “Twilight” makes watching the movies all the more hilarious.

same for me! i feel so bad for the guy though, you can totally tell in his eyes in interviews and such that he regrets attaching his name to the series XD

nahbynahby

Hummmm, I’m not a Twilight fan, though I was a
Pattinson fan for a while when he did the Harry Potter movie. He definitely was
very attractive there. Then came Twilight which, TBH, I’m not a fan of…I
think the movies are way better than the books (well, the one book I read one
half of…horrible torture. Sorry Twilight fans) and that’s saying a lot.
Pattinson does nothing for me, I don’t really find him attractive anymore :/.
JaeJoong on the other hand, I find very attractive :D. He’s a hottie, so damn cute.
I’m not really a fan of DBSK though. So, JaeJoong wins hands down, and fair and
square…yep.

alexie

Justin Bieber vs G-Dragon? LOL!

Issy

Even SE7EN’s chicken likes Jaejoong.

Jaejoong is just so darn attractive and then you add that lovely voice of his. So unfair! Haha.

dozo

lol you brought up the chicken story again! Ahaha!

Revy

Jaejoong is so much better. And also the fact is he actually showers and comb his hair.

and then the crowd hates

I don’t think Pattinson is that attractive either, but he’s a nice guy, so I’m not going to hate on him. It’s not his fault that Twilight wasn’t great… or that he’s not that good of an actor… but yeah, he’s a nice guy.

When I first saw that, I was confused as to how they could even compared the two. Then again, I have never found Pattinson attractive in the least where as Jaejoong has gotten me to gasp at how beautiful he can be. His personalty is what truly wins me over, though. Jaejoong, hands down.

Pinky

Jaejoong would make a more believable vampire… a real vampire, not the sparkly kind.
I never did see RobPattinson attractive, but maybe it’s just me. My taste leans more on Asian men.

Even chicken mascot spazzing on jaejoong . This Robert pattison jaejoong comparison is more bearable than calling JYJ as 3 Justin biebers. I love JYJ so much , but please don’t call them Justin biebers

JAEJOONG of course!! Initially, Jaejoong looks a little feminine for my taste but after watching him in Protect The Boss, he’s definitely one macho guy!

Robert Pattinson on the other hand, oh gawd where do i start..
He just looks like so dishevelled, druggie or something..
He definitely look better in Harry Potter..
I guess not getting any sleep is an occupational hazard for vampires!

dudes, did anyone find the pic that they used for jaejoong super embarrassing? lol couldn’t they have chasen a better picture? like him wearing a rock outfit or somethin’? :/

i lol’d at this comparison :D um Jaejoong has ultimate bias status so he wins everytime, but I honestly never found rPatz that attractive….he has his moments,but physically speaking,definitely Jaejoong. Pattinson looked cute in HarryPotter though, then this Twilight business happened and just no. I think his strong point is that he has a great personality, he seems like a cool guy, and he hates twilight LOL so he gets kudos for that
Cheers Pati

Rob Pattinson isn’t my ‘Edward Cullen’ either. He is 1/4 of the reason why I dislike the movies so much (the remaining 3/4 go to his other half). Jaejoong isn’t my ideal type of guy (in terms of looks), but he is undoubtedly much better looking than Rob Pattinson. lol. What a random comparison…
